摘要：

A purified preparation of colicin A produced by Escherichia coli cells contained various forms of colicin A. Unfolding of the purified colicin A with urea provoked multimerization. Dimers, tetramers and hexamers of colicin A were identified. (C) 2002 Societe francaise de biochimie et de biologie moteculaire / Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
